APIKey to JWT Mediation Go Plugin

Built to be run natively as a package by Tyk Gateways.

This plugin is intended to run as the "post" part of the request lifecycle.

The plugin will create a JWT with the subject set to the subject on the developer profile, and let the request continue. Otherwise it will return an error.

Build the plugin binary (shared object) without using go

docker run --rm -v pwd:/plugin-source tykio/tyk-plugin-compiler:v3.1.2 api-key-to-jwt.so

Build the plugin binary (shared object) using go

In the root of the "api-key-to-jwt.go" file, run

go build -o ./middleware/go/api-key-to-jwt.so -buildmode=plugin ./middleware/go

Put the generated so file somewhere Tyk Gateway can access it.

Setup your API

in API Designer, click on "Raw API Definition"

1. Set "driver": "goplugin"
2. Set the request lifecycle to be run

"custom_middleware": {
	"post": [
		{
			"name": "ApiKeyToJwt",
			"path": "/opt/tyk-gateway/api-key-to-jwt.so"
		}
	],

"name" has to be the name of the GO function "path" is wherever you put the binary generated previously
